A high-accuracy space smart payload integrated with attitude and position (SSPIAP) is a new type of optical remote sensor that can autonomously complete image positioning. Inner orientation parameters (IOPs) are a prerequisite for image position determination of an SSPIAP. The calibration of IOPs significantly influences the precision of image position determination of SSPIAPs. IOPs can be prec...

A density matrix treatment of the time evolution of the third order polarization response describing the optical heterodyne detected (OHD) transient birefringence and dichroism excited by ultrafast pulses is given. The relationship between frequency domain (Raman scattering) and time domain (pump-probe) spectroscopies is revealed by this pathway explicit description. Constructive and destructiv...

Crystalline bovine or porcine glucagon was fractionated by chromatography on columns of DEAE-cellulose in the presence of buffers containing ‘7 M urea. About 89% of the recovered protein comprises highly purified glucagon; 10% is monodesamidoglucagon and another 0.8 % resembles glucagon in amino acid composition and in electrophoretic mobility. The monodesamidoglucagon was identified and charac...

A 488 nm argon laser (Melles Griot) was used as the excitation source and the laser beam was focused using a 100X, 1.3 N.A., oil immersion apochromatic objective (Olympus). Throughout experiments excitation laser power was kept at 150 μW using neutral density filters. The emitted fluorescence was then collected by the same objective and an initial dichroic mirror (505DCXE, Chroma Technology) se...

Transmission and phase-shift characteristics of dichroic high-pass filters with cutoff frequencies as high as 1.11 THz and of a cross-shaped grid bandpass filter with a resonance frequency of 280 GHz were measured with an electro-optic sampling terahertz time-domain spectrometer operating between 0.1 and 2 THz. Good agreement with transmission theories is found. We also compare the transmission...

The magnetic polarization of the Lu 5d states through the Ho(1-x)Lu(x)(Fe(1-y)Al(y))(2) series has been studied by means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism. A combined study of the dichroic signals performed at the Fe K-, Ho L(2)- and Lu L(2,3)-edges gives a complete picture of the polarization scheme at the conduction band. The results show that in the presence of competing localized magneti...
